What options did you ticked

There were literally no options. Just colour.

The dealer did include floor mats and the maintenence pack which they said I have to get.

Once the VIN is assigned I will be able to add any dealer options.
That carbon wing is tempting but at 275,000 JPY its not cheap...

First off, congratulation and great thanks for your infos!
Have you received any brochures or prices for the options and add-ons?

One of the documents I was able to flick through was the sales training materials. It had the dates for release of the teaser videos and reveal as well as the sales cycle (I assume just for JDM) That document said that catalogs and other details will be released on September 1st.

There was a price list for the dealer options but he wouldnt let me take a photo of that and we didnt bother going through the details as we wanted to get the order into the system as quickly as possible.

That's fine, still great thanks for the update!

Looks like Japanese version doesn’t have Bose speakers…

Looks like Japanese version doesn’t have Bose speakers…

Yeah, I was sad about that for a second and then thought about the weight savings and figured I could live without it!

As long as its better than the crap speakers in my GR86...

Someone else ? In fk8 fb group also bought for 5m yen. Confirms everything op says thanks op for sharing

...Add to that the front splitter, grille, side skirts, shark fin...

Yep, the worst thing ever, such a downer they've done all this gloss black. I hate it on my FK8 and there's far less than on the FL5.

Lots of great info starting to come out now. Some of this is contrary to other initial reviews though. Suede rear seats? Yet the videos and reviews already said cloth with red stitching the same as in the FK8? Looks like it's going to be different in different countries again or the information in this paperwork is incorrect. Or are there going to be a ton of optional extras they haven't told anyone about yet?

Now we know the power and torque increase for Japan if these figures are correct. Should translate directly to the UKDM as previously happened. I wonder if the USDM is going to get 316 or 320/400 then?

I guess I'll have to buy a random orbital polisher "boys and their toys"

ya some details are certainly different from reveal. Unsure if it's the same situatioin as GRC or NA specs will be made differently from JDM spec. i suspect the latter is the case. Otherwise options such as power folding mirrors looks tempting
